The 'Mothers on the Frontline' movement, which unites mothers of soldiers, demonstrated outside Defense Minister Israel Katz's home calling for an end to the war and the return of all hostages. They stated that "Katz struggles to understand that the will of the people is to bring back the hostages and stop the war." The mothers shouted at Defense Minister Katz: "When Hamas wants a full deal you want a partial one, when they want a partial deal you want a full one, you don't want a deal - we will not agree to sacrifice our children on the altar of a political war."
